Objective To assess the role of intervention of dexmedetomidine in lung tissue and plasma of septic rats induced by lipolysaccharide.Methods Forty SD rats weighing 250-300 g were divided into 4 groups:control group (n =10)with saline (1 ml·kg-1·h-1 )infused through the tail veins of rats for 6 h;dexmedetomidine (DEX)group (n =10)with dexmedetomidine,injected 6.5 μg ·kg-1·h-1 for 10 min followed by 5 μg·kg-1·h-1 ,continuously infused through tail veins for 6 h;li-polysaccharide (LPS)group (n = 10 )with lipolysaccharide (7.5 mg/kg)infused through the tail veins of rats;LPS+DEX group (n =10),after infusion of LPS,rats were treated with dexmedeto-midine (bolus 6.5 μg·kg-1·h-1 ,10 min;5 μg·kg-1·h-1 ,continuous infusion)through the tail veins for 6 h.ELISA and Western blot were performed to assess the protein expression of IL-1,IL-6, TNF-αand TLR4;the wet/dry ratio (W/D)of lung tissue in each group was measured and the injury scores were recorded through the Murakami method.Results There was no statistical significance between the control group and DEX group in plasma level of inflammatory factors,pulmonary TLR4 expression,wet/dry ratio and injury score of lung tissues,however,compared to the control group, there was a significant elevation in the above-mentioned biomarkers,W/D and injury score of lung tis-sue (P <0.01).Compared to the control group,there was no statistical significance in the LPS+DEX group.Compared to the LPS+DEX group,the biomarkers mentioned above,W/D and injury score of lung tissues were significantly elevated in the LPS group (P <0.01).Conclusion The irrita-tion of LPS can trigger the elevation of inflammatory factors in plasma,TLR4 expression in lung tis-sues in rats,while the intervention of dexmedetomidine can significantly alleviate this tendency. Dexmedetomidine can suppress the inflammatory reaction and pulmonary edema in septic rats.

The mice B lymphocyte hybridoma cells were irradiated by 60Co?-rays with doses of 1, 2, 4, 6. 8Gy. A markedly dose-relation depression in cell survival rate, cell concentration and clone-forming rate was observed. D37 value of clone-forming rate was 8.26 Gy. Dose-relation depression was also observed in total production of monoclonal antibody of clones. But production of monoclonal antibody per clone was raised with radiation doses. These results indicate that ionization radiation depresses the survival activity of hybridoma cells, but stimulates the secretion of monoclonal antibody of survival cells.

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is one of the primary causes of end-stage renal disease (ESRD).Early diagnosis is very important in preventing the development of DKD.Urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) are widely accepted as criteria for the diagnosis and clinical grading of DKD,and microaibuminuria has been recommended as the first clinical sign of DKD.The natural history of DKD has been divided into three stages:normoalbuminuria,microalbuminuria,and macroalbuminuria.However,this clinical paradigm has been questioned recently,as studies have shown that a portion of diabetes mellitus (DM) patients with normoalbuminuria have progressive renal insufficiency,referred to as normoalbuminuric diabetic kidney disease (NADKD) or nonalbuminuric diabetic nephropathy.Epidemiologic research has demonstrated that normoalbuminuric diabetic kidney disease is common,and the large number of NADKD patients suggests that the traditional paradigm needs to be shifted.Currently,the pathogenesis of NADKD remains unclear,but many clinical studies have identified some clinical and pathological features of NADKD.In addition,the long-term outcomes of NADKD patients remain controversial.In this article,we reviewed the latest studies addressing the pathogenesis,pathology,treatment and prevention of NADKD.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of fluoroscopy-guided posterior medial branch release of lumbar spinal nerves in the treatment of facet articular low back pain in the elderly patients.Methods A total of 102 elderly patients with facet articular low back pain,who were admitted to the Department of Pain,Wuhan Municipal First Hospital of China from January 2017 to December 2018,were randomly divided into release group and conservative group.The patients of release group was treated with fluoroscopy-guided posterior medial branch release of lumbar spinal nerves,and the patients of conservative group was treated with analgesic drugs combined with physiotherapy.The preoperative and the postoperative one-week,one-month,3-month,6-month,12-month,24-month low back pain scores as well as the improvement of lumbar spine function were compared between the two groups.Results In the release group,the postoperative one-week,one-month,3-month,6-month,12-month,24-month visual analogue scores(VAS)were significantly decreased,and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05),which were significantly lower than those in the conservative group,and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05).In the release group,the postoperative one-week,one-month,3-month,6-month,12-month,24-month RM Q scores and Oswestry dysfunction indexes were strikingly decreased,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05),which were significantly lower than those in the conservative group(P<0.05).No procedure-related complications occurred in both groups.Conclusion For the treatment of facet articular low back pain in the elderly patients,fluoroscopy-guided posterior medial branch release of lumbar spinal nerves is clinically safe and feasible with excellent short-term and medium-long-term effect.

Objective:To analyze factors related to rheumatoid arthritis and anemia in elderly people.Methods:Clinical data of 58 elderly patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA)admitted to the Department of Rheumatology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from May 2019 to May 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into the anemia group and the non-anemia group based on the hemoglobin(Hb)index.Laboratory test results and general clinical data were compared between the two groups.Factors related to RA with concurrent anemia were analyzed by binary Logistic regression analysis.Association rules analysis was conducted using SPSS Clementine to identify strong correlations between red blood cells(RBC)and objective clinical parameters.Results:There was no significant difference in general clinical data between the two groups(all P>0.05). There were significant differences between the two groups in laboratory test results of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C), total cholesterol(TC), apolipoprotein B(ApoB), albumin(Alb), superoxide dismutases(SOD), erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR), Fe, mean corpuscular hemoglobin(MCH)and mean hemoglobin concentration(MCHC)(all P<0.05). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that PLR( OR=3.718, 95% CI: 1.119-8.742, P=0.022)and LDL-C( OR=2.319, 95% CI: 1.026-3.061, P=0.038)were independent risk factors for RA with concurrent anemia.Association rules analysis showed that decline in RBC was strongly correlated with changes in PLR, hs-CRP and LDL-C. Conclusions:RA with concurrent anemia in elderly patients is closely correlated with levels of molecules related to lipid metabolism and the inflammatory response.Close monitoring of lipid metabolism and inflammation is recommended during clinical treatment.
